A Few Photos of our Adventures

Most of the photos we take are when we're out going somewhere - and not any of the things of normal daily routine such as: morning scripture study, PMG (Preach My Gospel study- oh how we love both of those, our language study-spanish, our daily walk when we can fit it in, our daily planning and preparations, out visiting people in their homes, going on lessons with the other missionaries, teaching our English Classes here and in the neighboring town, or attending our weekly district meetings with the other 6 Spanish-speaking Elders in our area, Zone Conferences, Family Home Evenings, the monthly spanish newsletter we make and mail out, our outreach to the greater community for English and Self-Reliance classes, Christmas gifts for those in need, shopping with some darling girls to help get them some needed basic clothes, working with some of the dear hispanics in this area to help fix up some of their homes etc.

Most of these photos represent something 'out of the usual' but hope they will give you a taste of the area and some of the work to which we are about.

Our love to you all.
Sister (and Elder) Hendricks

After a wonderful week of experiencing and learning about some of the early church history sites in Independence, Missouri and Nauvoo, Illinois (Liberty Jail, Carthage, Temple Site, New Jerusalem, Pioneers, Quincy, Adam-Ondi-Ahman, LDS Temple, Smith Family Cemetery, Mississippi River etc.) we drove through beautiful Alabama to arrive here in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, last Monday.

It's been a bit of a whirlwind week getting settled, learning our way around a bit, meeting and working with the 10 outstanding younger missionaries in this area, meeting and loving the new ward members, attending two baptisms and Elder Hendricks (Mike) going out with the Elders 4 times now, and I, once.

Last Friday I drove two of our sweet sister missionaries to the 'Sisters Conference' in Bonifay, Florida (about an hour from here) where we met with the 72? other sisters in the mission and had a wonderful day together. Apparently, sisters are about 1/3 part of the mission and the Elders are t…

Dearest Friends,
We love you all and hope you are looking forward to good things in the New Year as we are. We are ever-so-grateful for Prophets of God who lead and guide us and who teach us to be at peace amidst a world in turmoil, #BecauseofHim whom gives us that peace. Now, more than ever, we know that the truths of the gospel are what bring us that calming and reassurance and understanding that all will be well as we follow Him.

We are so grateful for the new Come, Follow Me program that has already blessed our lives greatly, and look forward to many days where we can work on becoming 'new creatures' through Him.

Our love to you all!

This is month #17 for us. Today, as per some of your request, we're posting some of the before and after photos of some of the work we've done. We think it's symbolic of many of our own lives. We may be in great disarray before but as we allow light and truth to sink deep into our souls - and a true cleansing process to take place…

We had a visiting General Authority to our Stake Conf. this past weekend. It was wonderful, powerful, incredible and truly edifying!

Our Stake Public Affairs person asked me to take copious notes for a newspaper article she was going to put together afterwards, as she was going to be out of town. So, these are some highlights from my notes.

Hope you are blessed, if just in a small way, with some of these messages from a variety of speakers:
